There is no manager table. All employees are on the employee table, and the manager_id is a foreign key referencing the primary key of employee (id). Using a manager table prooved redundant, and did not make nested hierarchies any less convoluted, so it was ultimately abandoned for one flat employee table, with all hierarchy encoded into the manager_id column.
